About EarthPower | EarthPower

EarthPower Technologies is Australia's first regional food waste – to – energy facility located in Sydney's west. EarthPower accepts organic waste material from the industrial, commercial and residential sectors and converts it to green energy and nutrient-rich fertiliser.

The key benefits of the EarthPower Facility include;

EarthPower provides clients with lower gate fees than competitors within the putrescible waste industry, enabling a viable alternative to traditional landfill ling and allows for potential savings on other waste disposal costs by improved source segregation and recovery of recyclable organic material.
EarthPower facilitates the diversion of waste from landfill and subsequent reduction in green house gas emissions.
Production of green electricity relieves pressure from traditional coal fired electricity supply by producing an ongoing source of energy.

In 2007, Veolia Environmental Services and Transpacific Industries acquired EarthPower Technologies in a joint venture.
